she_o have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o his_o trouble_n but_o i_o think_v the_o true_a reason_n be_v that_o she_o look_v upon_o this_o fellow_n as_o a_o man_n well_o in_o his_o body_n have_v never_o be_v wound_v and_o who_o consequent_o be_v far_o more_o vigorous_a than_o her_o other_o gallant_a who_o have_v late_o receive_v a_o large_a wound_n through_o the_o body_n this_o accident_n occasion_v new_a law_n and_o new_a custom_n we_o consider_v that_o as_o long_o as_o we_o have_v woman_n among_o we_o they_o will_v be_v the_o occasion_n of_o trouble_n and_o mischief_n if_o we_o do_v not_o betimes_o take_v some_o good_a course_n and_o allow_v our_o man_n the_o liberty_n of_o use_v they_o sometime_o in_o a_o orderly_a manner_n but_o we_o have_v but_o seventy_o four_o woman_n and_o above_o three_o hundred_o man_n and_o therefore_o can_v not_o give_v every_o man_n a_o wife_n we_o consult_v long_o upon_o a_o method_n and_o at_o last_o pitch_v upon_o this_o we_o allow_v the_o principal_a officer_n each_o of_o they_o one_o woman_n whole_o for_o himself_o with_o the_o privilege_n of_o choose_v according_a to_o his_o rank_n the_o rest_n we_o distribute_v into_o several_a division_n and_o order_v it_o so_o that_o every_o man_n who_o be_v not_o pass_v fifty_o year_n of_o age_n may_v have_v his_o woman-bedfellow_n every_o five_o night_n we_o lay_v aside_o the_o old_a man_n and_o the_o four_o wife_n that_o be_v go_v to_o their_o husband_n in_o batavia_n and_o who_o profess_v to_o be_v very_o chaste_a and_o honest_a these_o keep_v together_o and_o live_v a_o while_n very_o reserve_v but_o when_o they_o see_v that_o all_o the_o other_o woman_n lay_v free_o every_o night_n with_o a_o man_n without_o incur_v any_o blame_n and_o that_o the_o relief_n we_o expect_v from_o batavia_n be_v long_o a_o come_n they_o begin_v to_o grow_v melancholy_a and_o to_o repent_v that_o they_o have_v choose_v chastity_n for_o their_o share_n by_o which_o mean_n they_o be_v deprive_v alone_o of_o those_o delight_n and_o pleasure_n which_o they_o see_v all_o the_o other_o woman_n take_v so_o free_o and_o so_o plentiful_o they_o show_v their_o discontent_a mind_n by_o a_o hundred_o action_n and_o they_o nor_o we_o be_v never_o quiet_a till_o we_o have_v distribute_v they_o among_o the_o rest_n and_o then_o they_o be_v satisfy_v here_o we_o have_v a_o very_a great_a proof_n that_o multiplicity_n of_o man_n to_o one_o woman_n be_v no_o friend_n to_o generation_n for_o few_o of_o these_o woman_n who_o be_v common_a to_o five_o man_n prove_v with_o child_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a all_o those_o who_o lie_v but_o with_o one_o man_n present_o get_v a_o great_a belly_n i_o think_v that_o be_v the_o natural_a reason_n why_o multiplicity_n of_o husband_n be_v
